Bull Grandia vs Manitou MBL 745 S: Which One to Buy?

Both these backhoe loaders dig, load and carry material on a single machine. The Bull Grandia has more engine power, digs deeper and comes with GPS tracking as standard, and its three steering modes make the front loader easier to work in tight spots. The Manitou MBL 745 S is lighter and more compact, drives faster on the road, and carries a longer 2-year warranty.

For a contractor who needs deeper digging, more lifting force and better fleet tracking, the Bull Grandia does more work per job. For a buyer who wants a lighter, easier-to-move machine with a longer warranty for peace of mind, the Manitou MBL 745 S is the safer long-term bet. See the full backhoe loader range, the Bull backhoe loader lineup, the Manitou backhoe loader lineup, or the backhoe loader guide.
